How we handle wood floor repair in Challock

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, across solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area

Common questions in Challock

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you work in Challock?

We do. Technicians travel to Challock from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

We cover the entire UK, including Challock and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do you need wood floor repair in Challock?

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Challock. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN25 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood
